Quick Trip to Ellicott City #3- New Wall Mural "Car Dealership: Looking into the Past"

 "Car Dealership: Looking Into the Past" mural

This is the third blog about our short walk through the streets of Historic Ellicott City on July 5. We noticed a couple of new murals painted on the sides of buildings, and one in particular caught our eye because it cited an historic business and was beautifully done. Of course, it had 2 dogs, a cat and a little mouse in it, too, so the animals caught our eye as well.

THE BEAUTIFUL MURAL - It's called "Car Dealership: Looking Into the Past" and it was painted by Antonia Ramis Miguel in 2019.  The mural was painted on the side of a building that was a former garage and Ford dealership built in 1921. It was a Model T building.
It's located on the east wall of Sweet Elizabeth Jane at 8289 Main Street, Ellicott City, Md.
